Now I'll be forced to search the rest of them, undoubtedly racheting up my TBR book count.

Hehe. You are very welcome. I thought of you the entire time I was reading this book. I hadn't heard of the titles you mentioned but I'm going to check them out.

I'm off to email the library. Thank you. I had never read about it on any other blogs. And that makes it special, too. I'm quite wild for time travel. Have you read what I think is one of the best by Jack Finney called Time and Again? I'll bet I've read it three times, and honestly could begin again right now. And there's a YA by Nancy Bond called Another Shore that I liked a lot. Thanks again, so much, Tara.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-42019742815459926002008-05-05T16:16:00.000-05:002008-05-05T16:16:00.000-05:00theelementary, Thanks so much for visiting and for...theelementary, Thanks so much for visiting and for your kind words!<BR/><BR/>Carrie K, no problem! My husband buys dough and just eats it raw sometimes. There's something to be said for that.<BR/><BR/>Les, This is definitely both and explores the notion of second chances as well.

Thank you for the review and the reminder. <BR/><BR/>Chocolate chip cookies should be more like unbaked cakes. I can't decide if it's because I really like the dough rather than the baked cookie or because I'm really impatient and end up making something like 20 cookies from the recipe.
